Driveway Sealing

in Fort Myers, FL

The next step is to get the pavers ready for professional sealing:

• Sanitization: We use diluted sodium hypochlorite to kill mould, mildew, or algae. This mixture won’t harm your landscaping.
• Pressure Washing: We clean the pavers using a rotary surface cleaner and turbo nozzles. 
• Chemical Treatment: If necessary, we use specialist products to remove tough stains. 
• Importance of Proper Cleaning: If we don’t remove the contaminants, the sealant won’t adhere properly. 

The next step is to stabilize the pavers:

• Joint Sand Application: We added ASTM C144 graded sand because it’s the best quality. 
• Hydro-Compaction Process: We apply water to remove air bubbles and compact the sand. Doing this leaves it tightly packed
  for better stability.
• Importance of Sanding: The sand prevents the pavers from shifting over time. 

Next, we go ahead with driveway sealing in Fort Myers, FL:

• Choosing the Right Sealer: Vargas Paver Sealing offers you a choice of topical or penetrating sealants. The former sits on top of the pavers and gives a high-gloss or matte finish. The latter soaks in, creating a natural look. 
• Sealer Finish Options: You can enhance the color of your pavers with a wet look or opt for a more natural, dry look. You can also
  adjust the sheen level.
